LNG - Cryoseal

The harsh environments of LNG and Cryogenic applications are no match for Odin Heavy Industries’ Cryoseal. Partnering OHI's proprietary polymer material Cryonel with engineered sealing technology creates a robust seal capable of withstanding temperatures as low as -320°F (-196°C). This technology is applied to OHI’s new line of solutions for stem seals, body seals, and valve seats.

New Product - 600°F Seal Material

OHI launches a new material capable of reaching 600°F. This material has properties similar to PTFE and is an excellent candidate for high pressure and temperature sealing applications.
